why do fans, players, hof'rs love Kobe and hate Bran after all the media brainwashing

[kennethgriffin]

since 2004... more propaganda has gone into the lebron hero kobe villain campaign than the US WW2 hero vs Nazi villain campaign a little over half a century ago


why has it backfired so much?

[kennethgriffin]

kobes on pace to have the most allstar votes ever. getting send offs at each stadium and all apposing fans as if he was mr nice guy derek jeter his whole life

receiving personal messages from legends like jordan and others


this doesnt look like something that happens to a villain



meanwhile lebrons still the butt of all jokes everywhere he goes

[Akrazotile]

Some guys are loved, others are feared.

Kobe is loved. Lebron is feared.

thats more to do with the type of fans that follow lebron

i've made a few threads before that classified the black/hoodrat/thug fan behind lebron and the upper class/white/spoiled fans behind kobe

the fact is... hoodrats, thugs, black people invest allot more money into basketball shoes than spoiled upper class white people


infact... i havent bought a pair of kobe shoes since 2005


we wear more classy shoes and designer stuff


hoodrats wear lebrons and jordans etc..

and they hate kobe



so his branding power isnt very high. but kobe seems to have more support in an overall world wide fan sense strictly when it comes to the game and his legacy

let me explain life to you

there's the mainstream
and there's the hipsters

mainstream people follow the media
hipsters go against mainstream

insidehoops, being an internet message board were 15 year olds pretend to be black and/or tough is 100% hipsters

you're basing your perception off an internet forum for children (and senile old men who like wilt or something) ergo not only is your perception/argument flawed, but you're also pretty much retarded

thanks for reading

it all depends on the shoes/who buys them/ and how much commercialization they do... lebron has the right market. kobes shoes have always been ugly as sin. and lebrons commercials are on 10 times more

a person can be a better shoe salesman but not be as liked


hense kobe leading the allstar game in voting 3 out of the past 5 years
